The Make-A-Wish Foundation is Chi Omega Fraternity's National Philanthropy. Since the start of our alliance, Chi Omegas have made a difference in many children's lives through volunteering time, talents, and dollars. The Make-A-Wish Foundation has honored Chi Omega for the incredible volunteer efforts of our members.

It all began on April 5, 1895, at the University of Arkansas when four young women, with the help of a local dentist, established the secrets and symbolism that today bind over 260,000 women. This small band of women founded Chi Omega after realizing a need for an organization that would foster both friendship and respect for the potential and inherent value of women. Over the years, Chi Omega has provided its members with unique opportunities in leadership, scholarship, and lifelong friendship - striving to provide each Sister with a commitment to personal integrity, excellence in academic and intellectual pursuits, intergenerational participation, community service, leadership opportunities and social enrichment.

Career and PersonalDevelopment prepares us for
life’s work and makes us marketable regardless of the path we choose. Sisters serve as mentors and coaches along
the way. Chi Omega promotes personal
growth and teaches us to work earnestly at whatever we choose to do.

Sincere Learning and
Creditable Scholarship means that we care about our intellectual
development. We embrace the spirit and
excitement of learning throughout our lives and encourage others to better
themselves.

Community Service means that we want to make a difference on our campuses and in our
communities. We know that giving back to
others unselfishly makes the world a better place and makes us better
people. Serving and giving helps to
connect us.

Initiation Dinner:We welcomed 34 new sisters into the Chi Kappa chapter of Chi Omega. It was so heart warming to see the enthusiastic faces of the new initiates at the Initiation dinner on Sunday, Jan. 29th. Many thanks to alumnae who contributed their time and food to make this event special for the Chi Kappas!

Many thanks to Liz Staursky for her many contributions and leadership with our active chapter!
